My cousin is a big person, she's fat and big chested. Some of the clothes she wears are really inappropriate. Yesterday she had on something that looked like her boobs were going to fall out. What should I say to her about the way she dresses? At school she's just a big joke with all the boys. They called he Double D Lottay and stuff. So what should I do?

You may figure out why she dresses the way she does by her response. If she dislikes what you find is appropriate there is not much you can do. Chances are her style will change soon anyways!

She may get offended but, subconsiously I know shes feeling really insecure because of her size, and that shes denying it and trying to flaunt it but its not working out to well.
girdy_goo15 answered Thursday July 6 2006, 7:02 pm: well first off there isn't too much you can do to help the situation. but just talk with her about why she wears it. then see if the two of you can go off for a shopping trip and show her some clothes that would be better for her to wear. maybe she thinks that it makes her more desirable, but trust me it doesn't and the guys who would notice her over these, are the kind of guys she needs to stay away from.
